Who remembers the video (about 2 years old) of American soldiers driving a Humvee in Iraq?

They basically run into the back of anyone in front of them until the car moves over.

I'd like to use that approach here.

Don't phase me a bit. If I am traveling faster, especially on a bike, I just see a open spot and pass. Could be left lane, could be right lane, either shoulder, if I am in a hurry and I fit, I will be gone!

thing is, around here they turn into vindictive fuckers when you pass using the right lane and decide to pull to the right just as you get around them.

I swear this is what they teach in TX driver's ed. Makes me IRATE. I definitely use my big truck powers for evil in traffic.

Like that matters? I-75 on the north end of ATL has 7 lanes on each side of the interstate and even early morning on a Saturday I've seen 7 cars flying formation and blocking the whole road.

Driving in Germany is wonderful. They are taught to drive correctly and have stiff penalties if you don't. Here in GA the actually took down the stay right except to pass signs about 10 yrs ago. Semi's are not "supossed" to pass in the left lane if there's more than 2 lanes but they do all the time and the stupid fucks always try to pass another semi going up hill cause they can go a 1/4 mph faster :rolleyes:

Did you guys see the tractor at the end of the humvee vid?

This almost got my friend offed and dead.

We were heading home from campus, him on his R6, and me in my cage behind. We were riding at a good rate speed in the right lane on a very curved section of 670 thru downtown. Some old bitch in a green Honda comes from an on ramp and merges instantly without looking/seeing him. His front wheel was basically equal with her back door handle. So seeing the immanent accident, I quickly cut into the left lane to cut off a SUV to give him an escape route. So at this point he had gotten over safely and was just comprehending what just happened... when the same bitch puts on her blinker and starts darting over into the left lane.... with him riding right next to her. Since it was downtown, there was no shoulder, only a concrete wall off of the white line. So as she is basically 1/2 way into his lane without noticing him, he reached over and pounds on her window 3 times. So the honda darts back over into the right lane.... and this oblivious bitch has the audacity to roll down her window and flick HIM off....

By that time I was passed supprised. I was pissed. So when he got done telling her to fuck off and went tearing off, I pulled up and told her to use her fucking eyes, etc... which she didnt like too much. But at the same time, all it would have taken was him to run out of room, get offed, and get run over by about 10 cars behind us. No doubt he would have been dead....
